Bach M.J. The design of the UNIX operating system

Prentice-Hall, 1986. — 471 p. Оригинал представленного здесь перевода книги - первого классического учебника по архитектуре UNIX-систем. This is the first, and still, the most comprehensive book to describe the sophisticated workings of the UNIX System V keel-the inteal algorithms, the structures that form the basis of the UNIX operating system, and their relationship to the programming interface. System programmers will gain a better understanding of how the keel works and will be able to compare algorithms used in the UNIX system to algorithms used in other operating systems. Programmers on UNIX systems will gain a deeper understanding of how their programs interact with the system and can thereby code more efficient programs.
